Churio out

What we know:

The Brewers are opening their NL Central title defense without outfielder Jackson Chourio after he fractured his left hand during the preseason.

The Brewers have placed Chourio on the injured list and say he's expected to miss two to four weeks. Chourio’s absence represents a major blow for Milwaukee’s lineup as the Brewers chase their fourth straight division championship.

The 22-year-old recorded at least 20 homers and 20 steals in each of his first two major league seasons.

Outfielder Blake Perkins, who had been expected to start the season in the minors, will fill Chourio's spot on the roster.
